Show us your log.txt file, check the heat of the back of your computer when it happens. Those are just the ones on the top of my head right now.

Agreed. Smells like a heat problem, not necessarily buggy software issue.

 

I use Xplane9+XSquawkbox for hours and hours continuously. Yes there's heat buildup on the GPU which I can feel .... and it's a MacBookPro 15", but seems to cope with it no issues.

 

Which iMac Model?

 

- CK.

Seeing the Log.txt might tell us something.

I think It's the heat problem. I flew now for 13hrs and then it just collapsed, I will bring the log.txt nex time, so we can watch it again

Just post the contents of the log.txt file. You don't need to (and can't) watch it real-time.

Im having the same problem too. Except it happens at my startup screen. The first time it happened was today when VATSIM changed servers. When VATSIM came back online my

X-Plane/Xsquakbox crashed. I don't think its is a heat problem for me (though computer is hot) because I took out the Xsquakbox files and X-Plane still worked...put the files back in and it crashed. I'm not a computer wiz or anything so I'm going to wait till tomorrow for my computer cools down, try again and see what happens. If anyone knows what might be going on (ex: an update for Xsquakbox I'm not aware of) help is much appreciated.

The crash yesterday was due to a bug in the code that handles a missing server list. It has nothing to do with your system.
